Peer to peer · Private by design

A life you share, on devices you own.

Chat, make plans, record what you do together, and keep the memories. Whispurr connects your devices directly to theirs, with no account to create and no company in the middle.

No account. No ads. No tracking. iPhone, with a Mac companion.

Follow Alice and Bob through one weekend. Everything it leaves behind, the messages, plans, routes and photos, belongs to the two of them and no one else.

Meet

Connect the way you meet

There’s no directory to search and no phone number to hand over. Nobody joins a chat until they say yes.

  • Show your code. Your contact card is a QR code for meeting in person, and it works again and again.
  • Send an invite. Share a one-time invite link by text or email.
  • Find people nearby. See who’s in the room over Bluetooth or device-to-device Wi-Fi, with no internet needed.
Bob connects with Alex by QR code, invite link or nearby discovery. Alex accepts, and their chat begins. Bob Alex Bob · contact card Scanning… Here’s my invite whispurr.app/i/… Sent by text Here’s my invite whispurr.app/i/… Tap to open A Alex Invite Nearby, no internet B Bob wants to chat Accept Hi Bob! Alex accepted

Alex says yes. Nothing starts until Alex accepts. Then it’s a private chat between two phones.

Talk

Just between you

Messages, photos, voice clips and calls, end-to-end encrypted. See who’s around, react to what they share, and pick up the conversation on your iPhone or Mac.

A chat with Alice: she has just arrived and shares a photo of the mountain view, and Bob offers to pick up ramen for dinner.

Plan

Plans you make together

Every chat has its own calendar. Add to-dos, lists and repeating plans that anyone in the chat can tick off.

Alice’s shared calendar for October 24: a photo walk at 4:00, dinner together at 5:45 and movie night at 7:30.
A shared plan list: Bob ticks off a to-do, and a repeating plan schedules its next turn. Weekend at the lake Alice and Bob · 3 plans Book the campsite B Pack the stove Water Gran’s plants Every Sunday · todaynext: Nov 1

Never miss a turn. When a repeating plan is done, the next one is already on the calendar.

Go

Record activities together

Record a walk, run or ride and save it to the event in your chat. Everyone who came adds their own route, and the chat’s map keeps them together with the photos and places.

Bob records a walk from home. The part inside his home privacy zone is trimmed, and his route joins Alice’s on the chat’s map. Home · private Photo walk · 2 routes Alice 3.1 km · Bob 2.4 km

Share it to the chat. Bob’s route joins Alice’s on the chat’s map. The stretch near his home never leaves his phone.

Capture

A fresh take on the camera

Shoot photos and videos in one go without leaving the camera. Every shot lands in a strip you can review, so you send the ones you love and drop the rest.

Four shots fill the capture strip. A blurry one is dropped, and the other three are sent to the chat together. 3 photos · to Alice

Send the keepers. The shots you kept go to the chat together, as one moment.

Circles

A persona for every circle

Keep family, friends and work in separate personas, each with its own chats and profile.

Each persona has a Vault for passwords, notes and two-factor codes, locked with Face ID.

One account with three personas: Bob, Bobby for the climbing club, and Robert for work.

Why it’s different

Your life isn’t a platform.

Most apps keep your relationships on their servers, mine them, and rent them back to you. Whispurr keeps them on your devices and the devices of the people you choose. No company holds a readable copy, including us.

No account to create.

No email, no phone number, no password. Your identity is a key on your device, with a 24-word recovery phrase.

Peer to peer, first.

Chats sync directly between members’ devices as a mesh, so a message can reach someone through another member. Relays carry encrypted traffic when there’s no direct path, and they can’t read it.

Works across the room.

Nearby Bluetooth and device-to-device Wi-Fi connect phones with no internet at all.

Your devices back each other up.

Link your Mac by approving it from your phone. Mark a device as a backup, and it keeps an encrypted copy of your account so you can restore it with your recovery phrase.

You, Alex, Sam and Jo share a group chat. When the internet drops, nearby links connect you to Alex and Sam, and your update reaches Jo through Sam. Internet Wi-Fi Bluetooth Bluetooth YYou AAlex SSam JJo · out of range

Through a friend. Jo is out of range, but Sam isn’t. Your update reaches Jo through Sam’s phone, still end-to-end encrypted.

Optional

Optional help, never a landlord

You send an encrypted update while Sam is offline. Courier holds it, then delivers it when Sam comes online. Y SOfflineOnline Held, encrypted

Sam gets it later. When Sam comes online, the update arrives.

Courier

An optional service that holds a chat’s encrypted updates for members who are offline, so messages don’t wait for everyone to be online at once. It can’t read them.

A Mac at home keeps a full copy of your account. A new phone restores from it with your recovery phrase. Old phone Backup device New phone

Bring it back. Enter your recovery phrase on a new phone, and your Mac sends your chats back.

Backup devices

Make a Mac at home a backup device. It keeps a full copy of your account, so if you lose your phone, your recovery phrase brings your chats back. Without a backup device, keep a working device.

Questions

How do I connect with someone?

Share your contact card as a QR code or link, or find them nearby. They accept before any chat starts. More about connecting

Your other linked devices keep everything. With a Mac as a backup device, your recovery phrase restores your account on a new phone. How backups work

Yes, as a companion: link it from your iPhone. It can also be your backup device. Link a Mac

Do I need any cloud services?

No. Chats sync directly between devices. Courier is an optional service that delivers to people who are offline and lets notifications arrive while Whispurr is closed. About offline delivery
